The CK Daily – A Week of Miracles
Happy Wednesday!
I hope everyone is having a great week so far! This past week and weekend were a rush. I think I shared that one of my family members was having a rather massive heart surgery done last week at the Cleveland Clinic. I am beyond thrilled to share that the surgery went incredibly well, and she is doing amazing. In some of her past procedures she has been in the hospital for weeks (like 6-7 weeks). When she shared this with the doctor, he let her know he would do his best to get that time down to only 7 days, and it’s seeming that might be the case.
I can’t get over how well it went, how smooth things have been, and what she’s been able to overcome. It’s been incredible. While everything was happening and approaching us, I think our entire family was nervous and scared, but confident. I think we all had a peace of where she was going and knew she was going to the right place. All I really know to say is…God is good. There was nothing we could do but put this in his hands, and that’s exactly what we all did.
Lastly, following the success of the surgery, we got the joy of preparing for my niece to make her grand appearance into the world. She is SO cute! I really didn’t think much of the emotion that might hit me, but seeing my brother be a dad was quite the tear jerker for me. He is just in awe of her, and it’s the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.
It’s been an emotional start to the year for us, but I’m hopeful that only the best is yet to come! Thank you all very much for the prayers that you shared for my family. I know there are some of you we are praying for that are going through some hard things, but if there’s something you would like to share with us for our team to pray for, please send it our way.
We are so grateful for you all!

Learning Center Article – Fast Ethernet Switches vs Gigabit Switches
When it comes to networking, you have a lot of choices. Most devices are connected wirelessly when they can be, but there are still plenty of occasions where it makes sense to run Ethernet cables. This could be related to security concerns, network reliability, or connection speeds. Regardless, you have some level of freedom in how you design Ethernet networks, and a lot of it boils down to the switches you select.
